Objectives The aim of this study was to establish a relationship between quadriceps tendon stiffness and its properties and variations in the body mass index (BMI) and segmental mass. Methods This study was conducted in 3 groups according to their BMI (A, low [< 18.5 kg/m2]; B, normal [18.5–25.0 kg/m2]; and C, high [> 25.0 kg/m2]). All of the participants included had a sedentary lifestyle and did not do any weightlifting or any kind of sports activity in the previous 6 months. Ultrasound measurements were performed on the participants' lower …
